Delors building, Public building in European Quarter, Brussels, Belgium.
The Jacques Delors building sits at Rue Belliard 99-101 with office spaces featuring modern architectural elements designed by firm Art & Build in 2004. The complex provides contemporary facilities for several European bodies in a single location.
The structure originally served as the European Parliament location until the 1990s, when activities moved to the Espace Leopold complex. This transition marked a shift in how the European Quarter's infrastructure was utilized.
The building houses the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of Regions, which represent diverse economic interests across Europe. Visitors can observe how these European institutions function in their daily operations within the structure.
The location near Leopold Park provides access via Brussels public transportation network, with several stations within walking distance. The central position in the European Quarter makes it easy to visit the building alongside other local sites.
The building received its current name in 2006 to honor Jacques Delors, who served three consecutive terms as European Commission President. This naming choice reflects his lasting influence on European institutional development.
